Can't get Image Engineer 3.41 to launch

rebbi · 04 July 2022, 02:44

Hi,
In rebuilding my A1200 tower, I've been migrating favorite
productivity apps to the refurbished hardware, which includes a Blizzard 1260 card and a Pixel 64 gfx card with the Ateo Bus system.
I have a registered version of Image Engineer with a valid keyfile, for whatever that's worth.
For awhile the program would fail to launch, complaining of some missing library. I got that all sorted out as far as I know, the last missing library being a particular version of the superview.library, which I finally migrated over to the new install.
Okay:
So now, when I try to launch Image Engineer (which I believe depends on the SuperView system, which I also installed) it crashes with a suspend/reboot window, complaining that the program ramlib has crashed.
Any ideas where to go from here?
Many thanks,
SF

Have you tried running SnoopDOS then starting it? It might give some clues.

I on WinUAE OS 3.9 BB4 AfA One have no problem starting ImageEngineer 3.4.

In any case then read from my Screenshot the required libraries

Good idea I’ll try that.

Thanks I’ll compare those with mine.

Okay, folks, thanks for the suggestions. SnoopDOS is brilliant and helped me track down the missing pieces, specifically, creating an assign for bgui and adding superviewsupport.library to LIBS:
It now launches!
My only remaining problem is that although my registration key is in the program directory, IE doesn't see it and it launches as the unregistered version.
Any suggestions?

Can you see it trying to open the registration key using SnoopDOS? Might tell you where it thinks it should be placed?
